Latest bomb threat in US empties Jewish children's museum in NY

DEBKAfile was founded by a team of journalists in June 2000 as an independent Internet Web site, providing an intelligence and security news service. March 9, 2017, 8:23 PM (IDT)

The biggest Jewish-themed children’s museum in the US was evacuated Thursday morning after its staff received a bomb threat by e-mail. Local police rushed to the Jewish Children’s Museum in Brooklyn, New York, and launched a search. It was the latest incident in the recent wave of bomb threats against Jewish institutions across the country.

Our unique angle on these subjects – and strong intelligence dimension – has earned DEBKAfile a global reputation and a steady readership – which skyrockets in times of crisis.
